The focus of this course is on preventing and enhancing awareness about the potential for a sudden and unanticipated attack as opposed to unrealistic physical skills that require extensive training to achieve and the pre-awareness of the existence of a weapon.
DurationEmployees are at greatest risk when they become complacent and least expect a situation to turn violent.
Programs such as “spontaneous knife defense” are incomplete and ineffective. Many involve a “crash course in martial arts” that narrows the focus to ONLY knife attacks and involve learning to fight with a knife, and then learning how to defend against someone who knows how to fight with a knife.
Approaches like these are negligent and dangerous.The reality of sudden acts of aggression is that a sudden act of aggression may involve an unarmed attack or the use of a contact weapon, but it is unlikely to know the difference.
The focus of this course is on preventing and enhancing awareness about the potential for a sudden and unanticipated attack as opposed to unrealistic physical skills that require extensive training to achieve and the pre-awareness of the existence of a weapon.
